So where does the Soviet debacle in Afghanistan fit into this tale?
My question exactly.
We were backing the mujahadeen, who were fighting the soviets, while the mujahadeen were being backed, organized and directed by the soviets - as they fought them? Huh? Or were dead Russians just part of the conspiracy?
On another point... The soviets could barely provide toilet paper to their people. What makes anyone think they could organize and carry out such a vast and far-reaching conspiracy, including feigning their "collapse"?
Seems like we're moving into Illuminati/Bilderberger/TriLateral Commission territory here...
